In such cases, this will be stated during the registration process, in the terms of use, through the distribution process, or in a similar manner. The third party's use of such information is governed by that party's privacy policy, and STKR.IT' use is governed by this privacy policy. Please visit the privacy policy of the content partner to make sure you understand how they use the personal information you provide to them. If you do not wish for such a transfer to take place, you should not register for the applicable product or service.

In such cases, STKR.IT may provide content usage, access, demographic and other information without your personally identifiable information to the content provider.
STKR.IT may disclose relevant information about our customers to our contractors (e.g. a customer service contractor or a credit card clearing service) in order for them to provide specific services for STKR.IT, and to better serve our customers. STKR.IT' contractors are bound by strict contractual requirements to keep all personal information they process strictly confidential and to use such information solely on behalf of STKR.IT.
